Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Beverly, MA

I provide brief and long-term therapy to adolescents and adults around a wide range of issues including: life transitions, relationships, anxiety, depression, trauma, couple/family therapy, loss, and grief. I am also a Christian counseling and love to investigate what God is doing in your life now.

Currently accepting new clients for telehealth. I’m here to offer space for a collaborative environment that we create together based around shifts you want to feel in your life. I have focused my work supporting queer and trans folks in various areas of life. Using a trauma-sensitive framework, I hope to support folks in bringing awareness to how emotions, trauma, conflict (and more) are showing up in the body. I hope to encourage curiosity, compassion, and groundedness towards an individual’s system- however that may look and feel right for you.

Welcome! I am the owner and provider for Melissa Morehouse LICSW LLC, where I strive to provide strength based support. I have 13 years mental health experience working with children, adolescents, families as well as adults. When working with children and adolescents, I believe in supporting the whole family; providing caregiver support, psycho-education, parent and family sessions (when needed). I believe in meeting the person where they are, based on everyone's unique needs.

CURRENTLY TAKING SELF PAY CLIENTS. I have had much experience helping people with their emotional pain, unresolved trauma, fear, anxiety, confusion, grief, stress, inner critic and self worth. I can assist you in identifying personal strengths, get in touch with your intuition, develop appropriate boundaries and bring the unconscious to awareness. I will help you let go of narratives that hold you back, and then assist you in connecting with your personal power and authentic self.

I'm a licensed mental health counselor who services adolescents and adults at my office in Beverly, Massachusetts, or across Massachusetts via telehealth counseling. I specialize in treating issues related to trauma and anxiety.

Do you struggle with unworthiness and not good enough feelings? Do fears of failure and limiting negative beliefs keep you from taking action in achieving your goals? Perhaps you recognize that your past is getting in the way and it's time to do something about it. Do you tend to cope with stress in unhealthy ways? Are you struggling in relationships and feeling lonely and discontent? For over 20 years I have helped people to heal their past, learn to truly love themselves and to start living their best lives. I specialize in healing from narcissistic abuse, depression, anxiety, and relationship dissatisfaction.

I enjoy helping adults of all ages move through issues to gain greater satisfaction in relationships, including the most important- with oneself. If our relationships are not supportive, it may feel we are missing out on the sweetness of life. I often use a cognitive behavioral approach, which is a way we gain greater control over what happens to us, and access greater choice in how we respond to events. It can help us strengthen communication skills, deepen intimacy and heal codependency. We can grow beyond lifelong issues; and replace feeling overwhelmed with feeling peace, learning to celebrate every step we take on our journey.

I guide people to create change in their lives, and understand this is often a difficult and overwhelming process. My focus is to assist people with creative problem solving, stay goal-oriented, and to ensure you feel validated and truly heard. By exploring your feelings, thoughts, physiology, and experiences, you’ll come to feel, learn, heal, and grow. It’s not always fun or easy- soul work is hard work. But I strive to provide a safe, nonjudgmental, and nurturing space for you to become empowered and create agency in your life. It’s time to focus on caring and nurturing yourself. Because it really does start with you.

I specialize in depression, anxiety and trauma, and the use of alternative psychotherapy approaches. (However, I do offer traditional approaches). These new psychotherapies are body-centered and mindfulness-based. In other words, we are more than our thoughts - we are our sensations, feelings and that something which is greater than the self, the transpersonal. These new psychotherapies work directly with client's moment to moment awareness of what is felt or sensed within the body. These felt sensed experiences are then processed through cognition which then allow for the opportunity of insight, change and healing.

I treat clients who sense a disconnect between life as they are currently experiencing it and the life they know deep inside they are meant to be living. I help my clients heal trauma and pain, overcome obstacles, and gain the clarity that can lead to a lasting sense of purpose, joy and ease. I believe that within each and every one of us lies the wisdom that can lead us to greater life fulfillment. I am honored to offer compassionate psychotherapy intended to reconnect you to your internal wisdom and enhance your capacity to trust in yourself.

Next Chapter Counseling is a private practice run by Mara Capello, LICSW. Here I focus on Narrative Therapy to help those working through a history of trauma, addiction, depression, or anxiety. The ideal client for NCC is someone who wants to work on how the events in their past such as abuse, neglect and violence affect their future. Narrative work helps people to understand their own story and to work to find new narratives within their history so that they can change their lives going forward.

I am providing evidence-based therapy for a superior clinical outcome in your mental health care through Telehealth and in-person sessions. My cultural heritage, my fluency in Spanish, my commitment, and compassion for people from different backgrounds have helped me make a difference in my community. I want to help individuals, children and their families gain the necessary emotional and intellectual tools in order for them to achieve their goals and live a full and rewarding life.

Are you currently facing a sense of stagnation in your life, unable to see a clear path forward? Do you often find yourself in emotional distress, wondering why you keep reacting the same way? Are you experiencing somatic symptoms that seem connected to your emotional experiences? I am here to help you unravel these challenges and work through them together. I believe that we all have the capacity for healing and personal resolution within ourselves and can learn a great deal from our own inherent resilience from both our past and present. I strive to bring both authenticity and connection to all of our sessions.

Thank you for taking the time today to review my profile. Beginning the process of psychotherapy can feel like a daunting one. Your ability to feel comfortable and at ease with a therapist can only help you to address difficult or painful parts of your life. My patients tell me that they often feel safe and "at home" when they are working with me. I enjoy working with folks who have been suffering from depression, trauma, loss, and substance abuse. Please feel free to call me to talk about scheduling an appointment.

Lorraine's clinical expertise includes depression, anxiety, trauma, and PTSD. She provides individual and family therapy. Lorraine is also a certified DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) clinician. As her client, you will explore and learn the skills needed in order to be mindful in all situations - to use your "wise" and not "emotional" mind. This approach will allow you to think more clearly, relax in stressful situations, stay in the moment, verbalize your needs, and address problems in a more focused and productive manner.

Hello and welcome. My name is Matt Stella, and my goal is to reconnect you to the wisdom and depth in your life that make all problems workable. In fact, the worst symptoms and problems that we wrestle with often hold the seed for growth and transformation. Working with adults, couples, and men's groups, my life’s work is to facilitate transformation out of all forms of suffering. Part of my work is to serve male survivors of sexual abuse or assault. (See MenHealing.org) When needed, I use EMDR to address and heal the effects of trauma, abuse and neglect for adults of all genders.

Coping with life can be hard sometimes. Your emotions can seem overwhelming, especially when you are under stress. Perhaps you find that your emotions or behaviors are getting in the way of happy, meaningful relationships. What if things could be better? What if you could feel safer, more connected, and even optimistic? Fortunately, you can learn to not just cope, but overcome your symptoms. I can show you how to gain better emotional control and balance, while also building on the many strengths you already have. You can stop just surviving the day-to-day, and begin to create a happy, positive life.
